One of my first objectives when I move to a new town or city is to find a good Indian restaurant, which I normally patronize 2/3 time per week and consume full 3 course meal and 3 or 4 large beers. I read some good reviews about the Tandoori Hut, on 5th Ave, so thought I would try it out. I was looking forward to a good dining experience, which normally includes Indian beers, appetizers, a hearty spicy dinner and watching Bollywood music videos on their TV. I positioned myself so I could see the TV and proceeded to order. The beer came and although cold, was flat. It was a bottle of Taj Mahal, which had probably been opened earlier on the evening and not consumed, returned to the fridge waiting for muggings here to come in. I let the flat beer slide as the first beer doesn't usually last more than a few minutes. I ordered an appetizer, Lamb Samosas and Chicken Tikka Masala with rice, for the main dish. I sat back to relax and enjoy the music videos and my flat beer. Within minutes my dinner had arrived, a bowl of soupy masala, with cubed 'fake' or processed chicken, which had obviously been taken from the giant batch used for the never ending buffet, instead of carefully prepared al-la-carte as requested. When the server brought the main dish I stopped him and inquired as to the whereabouts of the appetizers. He informed me that the appetizers take longer to cook than the main dish and that he would bring them out in a "Few minutes" WHAT!!!!!!. I think he meant longer to cook that it does to spoon out day old masala from a bath sized tub!! I informed him that the appetizer is supposed to come before the main course and I told him to cancel the samosas, he obviously doesn't understand English, because while I was waiting for my rice to arrive, he arrived with the samosas. I sent him and them away as the rice arrived, honestly, I have never seen a smaller plate of rice served as dinner. To put it into perspective, the masala soup was about the size of a regular sized cereal bowl, which had been filled to the brim with the mass produced sauce and the rice arrived on a small sized side plate (not a bowl, a flat side plate) with what I estimated to be 1/2 cup of plain white rice. I questioned the server and she said that's what comes with a dinner. By this time I was becoming weary of arguing. I just said ok, just leave it and proceeded to serve up my Sunday evening treat. IT WAS COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!! I'm normally very subdued, especially in public, but I couldn't help myself, I called the woman from behind the counter and informed her that the food was cold and went on a mini tirade about everything else. With that I got up and walked out. I've been frequenting restaurants for 40 years, all over Europe and America and have NEVER walked out dues to poor service or food. From my one visit I can say that the place is more like a fast food joint, intent on packing the gullets of patrons with as much food and as quickly as possible. The masala is the only dish I can specifically comment on and it was dreadful, no real taste and dreadful processed chicken, pre-cut into exact squares for 'convenience'. 1st and last visit. You have been warned.
